50 Best American Restaurants near Coal Valley

“Mulligans is the best!!!!“

“Stopped in after a great trip to the zoo. Atmosphere was great, football on the TVs for the guys, and atmosphere was fun especially watching the Halloween deco being put up. Great app menu, lunch menu was a hit for our table of four, and wide variety of drink choices. It was afternoon and our bartender/server was very attentive and checked in. She really knew her stuff. Great place would recommend and go back when in the area.“

“Stepping into Me & Billy’s in Davenport felt like teeing it up on a perfect Saturday—everything lined up just right. From the opening drive, Morgan and Cassidy set the tone. They played the round like seasoned pros: attentive without hovering, polite, and always one step ahead. Their cocktail game was pure shot-making—creative, well balanced, and happily customized to fit exactly what we were looking for. No mis-hits anywhere. The food? Absolute center-face contact. The chicken and dumpling soup was warm, comforting, and full of flavor—like a reliable approach shot that sticks the green. And the ribeye steak sandwich was the ace of the day: cooked beautifully, packed with flavor, and truly out of this world. That’s the kind of shot you talk about long after the round is over. The atmosphere sealed the win. With SantaCon rolling through downtown, the place turned into a holiday scramble—30 to 40 Santas stopping in, high spirits everywhere, and a festive energy that made the whole experience even more memorable. It felt like playing in a charity tournament where everyone’s having a blast and every hole is a good time. All in all, Me & Billy’s delivered a flawless round—great service, outstanding food, and a lively environment. Easily a clubhouse-worthy finish, and absolutely a place we’ll be coming back to. 🏌️‍♂️🎅“

“Jasmine was excellent waitress! Fast and very friendly! Just love her!🩷🩷“

“Aunt Beas is the type of place the locals keep secret. The type of place where the food is made with heart. Real southern home cooking! Everything, I ate was delicious and fair priced. Come try you some!“

“Grew up eating porkies. Glad to see their food and prices still beat others. Home cooked food and great prices. 3 dinners cost me $23. Anywhere else I go the least I pay for 3 dinners is $40. Do not sleep on porkies! Breakfast and dinner, both are good and never disappoint.“

“stopped in to get a quick bite to eat while waiting for the bus. the atmosphere was great and the staff were friendly and very helpful and they have the best taco salad around! whenever I'm back in Davenport I'll be sure to stop by again“

“I love Culver's! Cheese curds, butterburgers, the cheese fries! Never had an issue with anything but the cheese sauce. How much do you pay for cheese sauce and I got half a containers full? Second time. I want the cup full, not half for that price. Otherwise, good food....You buy cheese sauce, check it before you take off....“

“I LOVE that you don't have Miller lite-bud light-coors lite on tap! only your own beer!“

“I try to never give 5 stars because someone once told me that if you were to give top ratings to everyone and everything then noone would ever try to improve. And in my humble opinion, you should always strive and there's always room for improvement! They nailed the atmosphere tho! Not the run of the mill antique overload restaurant but very nicely blending industrial modern decor keeping it simple but classy. Very Midwest!“

“Yesterday, Thanksgiving 2025, we experienced the Riverfront Grille for the first time. The staff were happy to see us, friendly and very attentive. Second, the food was outstanding. Turkey and ham were done to perfection, a variety of salads, soups and sides were homemade and delicious. Lastly, the overall experience (including desert) on a busy day was wonderful. Thank you Riverfront Grille…looking forward to our next visit…highly recommend them.“

“I miss working there. all the customers, and the fun just working with Mickey, Bill, and, my love to hate and love to just be near kelly“

“My family and I were very well accommodated by Colleen (manager) and Erica (server/bartender) for what was an amazing area to host a graduation dinner for family and friends. This private, elegant area would also make a great space for bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, etc. I was obsessed and we were so so lucky to have exceptional service for a short-notice event. We enjoyed the broad selection of drinks from the bar and the delicious food. My favorites were the Mo’ Dough appetizer and the Fowl Play turkey sandwich.“

“Great butter burgers, fries, and hot sandwiches. The frozen custard is delicious and freshly made with your choice of mixins to make yummy concretes. Order at the counter & your food is delivered to your table, or use drive-in or pickup.“

“Last night we went to Chevin's Kitchen and Catering located inside Kavanaugh’s Hilltop Bar and Grill in Rock Island. This is the second time we have stopped in recently for the daily special. We are so glad we did. From the prompt greeting by the servers and bar staff to the made to order burger sliders with fresh cut fries everything was AMAZING! Our servers were on top of it and so friendly. The food was GREAT! If you haven’t checked this place out yet or if you have forgotten about one of the oldest bars in the neighborhood don’t snooze on this! Great food and great service! We can’t wait to go back! — at Kavanaugh's Hilltop.“

“Great food, great service and a good atmosphere.

They are a bit more on the pricey side but they also carry better cuts of meat than like a Texas Roadhouse or Lonestar type place.

I have never gotten a bad meal from them dining in, although take out can be disappointing on some occasions so I suggest you dine in at this place.“

“Outstanding food and the best coffee in QCA!!! Highly recommended and outstanding service!!!“

“I love Maid Rites. However it took HALF AN HOUR to get 4 Maid Rites. 😢😢 Maid Rite on Division St. (There were only 2 tables when I got there)“

“The course is BACK! I played here many times when it was previously open and I am so happy it is back! I went today with my family and the course was in great shape considering it was closed for many years. Do yourself a favor and golf a round! New carts, friendly staff, and great location!“

“Rather than stop at one of the busy chains, I decided to have my meal at the airport prior to my flight. It was a good choice. First, my server Pam was outstanding. She was attentive and professional. The restaurant is calm and quiet, and there is lots of room. The meal was cooked just as ordered, with eggs, sausage potatoes and an English Muffin. The prices are very reasonable. Next time in Quad Cities International, I'll eat here again.“

“Nice vibe for sure I enjoyed the service and cleanliness. One thing I could bank on is that I definitely did better at The Lone Wolf then in the casino, hopefully they get back to even running side by side so we can keep are tabs paid up with all the big winnings. Thanks Lone Wolf!“

“Really good ice cream staff are super friendly and really good candy“

“We chose Beef + Bourbon for our anniversary dinner yesterday. We made reservations ahead of time, and made a note with the reservation that it was our anniversary dinner. I'll get my disappointment over with first and move on to all of good. I wasn't happy with where we were seated. For whatever reason, we were stuck in the bar area. Our view to the left was the parking lot. The view to the right was the bar, which came with its own set of noise. And since we were on a main pathway, it was hard to have any conversation with the traffic and noise passing by every few minutes. I think I was expecting to sit in the beautiful other spaces they have available with dim lighting and a more romantic vibe, especially for an anniversary dinner. The food was absolutely mind blowing. Everything we had was cooked with so much thought and care. The beef medallion and crab cake appetizers really set the stage for the main course, which consisted of ribeye for both of us. Absolutely the best steak I've ever had. Tender, juicy, seasoned to perfection. My husband enjoyed asparagus with hollandaise as a side. I enjoyed a salad. Everything we devoured was absolutely top notch. Our waiter was awesome, Travis. He definitely took care of us as far as service. Very nice gentleman. I would give the food a 10000/10. I hope to be able to go back and give the ambiance another try. My fault for not speaking up while there or having the wrong set of expectations.“

“Came for the five dollar burger baskets on Monday. We had excellent service. The burger baskets were amazing. They accommodated our group of 10 with a smile. We will definitely be coming back. Shout out to our waitress Becky. She did an excellent job.“

“Soups are delicious 😋🤤. I am not big with fastfood 😔. I am not a big fan of this place. But, you don't have to worry about your order being @## up lol like "Mc Donalds" this place is very friendly, and a good place for a family outing.“

“Food is a 10 out of 10, service is a zero out of 10. Our service was Maddie and she needs to go back to waitress school. She is absolutely horrible, if I knew she was going to be my waitress the next time I went I would never go again. I could go into everything that she needs to improve on but not going to waste my time.“

“Our Supper Club chose to dine here last Saturday, we had a group of 10. We had drinks and then appetizers, the mint chocolate chip martini and the espresso martini both were amazing! We all bought appetizers to share and they were all great. Every one of us loved our entrée. I had the New York strip, which was fantastic and my husband had a fillet and he said it was fantastic too. We both eat our steaks, medium rare, and they were cooked perfect. After dinner, we did split a piece of heath bar cheesecake and it definitely lives up to the hype! I think all of our favorite part of the atmosphere was the piano player! He was so fun and played great sing a long songs. Our group had a lot of fun singing along with him and dancing in our chairs! Our server/Alise did a stellar job of taking our orders, a timely delivery of appetizers and drinks. But most importantly, our food was all delivered within a few minutes of each other, so nobody was sitting and waiting for their food. Claudia did a great job on making sure everybody had what they needed. Everything was prepared the way we wanted it and the final touch of boxing our leftovers for us, was just the chefs kiss on top of a great evening. We will definitely be coming back.“

“Excellent beers and staff is fantastic“

“Awesome staff. Very reasonable prices. Great food“

“The restaurant looked really nice inside and kept very clean. The young waitress who said she was there for only two months. Did an absolutely fantastic job! As if she’s been doing this for years. I liked how the menu was set up. Well organized with plenty of meals to select from. Without overwhelming a person. The comfort food itself tasted great. Served hot and not taking forever to receive. An overall great atmosphere and experience!“

“Very friendly servers, and great French fries. The burgers are good, and you get soup with it. I ordered Deluxe, which comes with fries too. They were perfect. The menu has enough for everyone to find something they like.

Prices are good, nothing to complain about at all.“

“Raw is easily the best cocktail lounge in The Quad Cities. They use fresh, quality ingredients in their food and drinks. Everything's wonderfully curated. A rare big city feel while still being intimate. The bartenders are the best ever! They are really friendly and great at crafting premium cocktails! A true gem for downtown Davenport!“

“Awsome burgers and and onion rings“

“Food was fire 🔥 customer service amazing. Big thanks to the chiefs working in the back too.“

“karoke with robert , 🎤,the food&bargirls,allens ok too😁“

“Anthony is the best mixologist anywhere. The menu is five star. Charcuterie served for 2,4, or 6. Whatever you do, don’t eat before getting there. Gary & Patty.“

“Our son goes to augustana and we were there to visit one of his friends recommended us going there and also recommended the mushroom fries I will say it left you wanting more….. great food , great beer I had the sweet potato. Brew and also tried October fest 👍we will be back!!“

“Only good thing about this place is the view. Went last night to celebrate a birthday and I spent more time waiting for my beer than being able to sit down and enjoy my time. 10+ minute wait for a beer with only 5 People around the bar is pretty ridiculous. Needless to say I was pretty upset by the end of the night.“

“I was not prepared for the insane amount of beer on tap! Incredible selection, and a knowledgeable bartender that helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. The food was delicious, and there was a variety of seating options. I also got a free beer with my entree“

“A great place to play games and enjoy a nice dinner with family!“

“My husband and I live in the neighborhood and had several people tell us to visit. My only regret is we didn’t go sooner! The staff were all so friendly, generous portions, one of my favorite pancakes I’ve ever eaten. We will absolutely be back!“

“Really good food! The Gyros were the best I've had in a while. Good options for kids, and the owners and staff are really friendly.“

“Love it love it love it! Have eaten several items of the menu. Everything has been a absolute hit! Me and my family will continue to return!

Kid-friendliness: Great kids menu and prices! We r a plus 8 family!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is front door handicap accessible parking.“

“A group of men get together on Wednesday's for lunch and comaraderie 3 of us ordered walleye and the other 2 ordered Chicken both orders came with salad bar and everyone enjoyed the time we had together the staff and owner's were all really great 😃👍“

“Went twice while visiting area. Staff delightful, clean, pleasant surroundings. Food presented promptly, warm, eye appealing, and very good. Same menu lunch & dinner.“

“Fun experience with some amazing food. Love this place“

“The Family Restaurant is a go to for my wife and I. They have incredible food with staff that is always friendly and ready to serve. There is a small discount for paying with cash. They serve any food all day.
You will not regret giving this place a try!“

“It was my first visit not knowing what to eat . The lady I wish I knew her name .Caucasian mature lady she was exceptional , gave me tips and suggestions. The sandwich was ready in 5mins. No waiting . ** Shocker . The sandwich was great I ate a quarter of it could barely finish it. The king size is great for two meals … jmo . I recommend this if you need a great sandwich . Saved the backed potato for dinner and the rest of sandwich.“
